Neighbors say the street is usually quiet and are racking their memories trying to remember any odd behavior.

"We came home from a movie about 10:30 (last night)," said one neighbor who asked not to be named, "there were just some people over there, the garage door was open, some people standing around, I didn't think anything of it."Another neighbor, Mike Fisher, says the woman and her child moved in a few months ago. He recalls seeing a man visit the home."I figured that was her boyfriend and then about a week later this other guy came in. And they'd drive up and down the street and he'd wave and we'd wave," he said.
